PureVision Contact Lens Reviews

The jury is still outI have been wearing contacts since 1993 and I love the kind I can sleep in. The longer the better. I just got these Purevision, Multi focal lenses on Saturday and at first I loved them. I didn't have to use my cheater glasses to read anymore - woohoo! The first 2+ days were good, but then day 3 and 4 have been awful. I've had to remove my lenses, clean them, use moisturizing drops several times a day,etc and I still feel like there is a piece of gravel in one of my eyes. These lenses are thicker than any contacts I have ever worn, so maybe my eyes are just trying to get used to them. But I'd gladly go back to my old contacts and use cheater glasses than to put up with painful eyeballs a good share of the day. Keeping my fingers crossed that they will settle down and I'll go back to the old days of never feeling my contacts on my eyes.

Pure Vision are Pure TortureI told my Opt last time he tried me with these that they were uncomfortable. Why did he make me try them again? I have worn contacts for over 30 yrs. When you are wearing contact lenses, you shouldn't even know they are there. As soon as I handled them I knew they were much heavier than anything I was wearing - like rubber boots compared to fine Corinthian leather. Hard to handle, not flexible -- but maybe there's a reason he's giving them to me, give it another try. After about a week they began to conform to my eyes and were less uncomfortable. Less. That didn't last long. 2 1/2 - 3 weeks in I'm supposed to do a shoot and all of a sudden my eyes are burning & in pain & even when I take them out my eyes are in pain & red & weepy for a couple of hrs. (Looks great on cam.) I try them again a couple of days later. OK for an hour or so & then.. same thing. Later, when I look at them at home, there's a small pie-shaped wedge out of one of them. I have never seen anything like this before. Well, no wonder I'm in pain -- but how come they're so "sturdy" - but already falling apart? Who cares what my vision was, since I was in pain most of the time. If, as the 1st reviewer said, you're only supposed to use certain cleaners with them, then that should be a prominent warning on the box - but this is the 1st I've heard of it. Possibly I have an unusual eye shape? But if you try them & they're uncomfortable - forget it, they're not going to get better.

Not good for dry eyesThe vision with theses lenses was fine, but if you have dry eyes like me, they may not be the best for you. I've worn contacts for about 15 years now so I'm no wimp, but I had a tough time wearing these lenses more than 4 or 5 hours because my eyes would feel so dry in them. I had to use eye drops frequently and even that wouldn't help after a few hours.

Recurrent Corneal Errosion Syndrome and PurevisionI suffer from RCES and I use these Lens as a bandage at night(clear ones. I pop them in at 22:00 and take them out in the morning when I get up...all very easy. I don't even know they're in there most of the time, but some mornings, due the nature of RCES, they're a bit dry. Very good. I've had this problem for 28 years now. Since I've used them, nothing. It changed my life!

Switched from Ultraflex Conventional Lenses to Pure Vision Mutlifocals Love them!!I just switched eye doctors because my previous doctor refused to try me on the silicon lenses. Not only did my new doctor try me on these new lenses (Purevision), but also on the Multifocal. My eyes used to feel scratchy and I constantly felt friction from the other lenses. These new lenses are unbelievable. My eyes are not dry and my vision is amazing. I don't have that friction problem either. I'm so glad I listened to my instincts and changed doctors.
